After months of anticipation, Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo comes out of the water after a dip in the Seine River on Wednesday, July 17, 2024 fulfilling a promise she made in January nine days before the opening ceremony of the 2024 Olympics. The swim occurs along the stretch of the river that passes by the imposing-looking City Hall and the Notre Dame Cathedral as part of a broader effort to showcase the riverâs improved cleanliness.//04SIPA_SIPA.6965/Credit:Lafargue Raphael/POOL/SIPA/2407171102
